I have been so blessed to spend an extended amount of time in Hungary. I could never thank you enough for all that you have done for me. Your prayers and support allowed me to be a tool for spreading the Gospel. I truly felt the prayers of encouragement when I was lonely or stressed. As participants in his journey, you were there with me every step of the way. The Lord uses the Gospel to bring so many different people together for His glory. My life has been enriched by the people I met during my time in Hungary and the wisdom and love that accompanied them. That wouldn’t have been possible without your prayers for the Lord’s provision. Please pray that the Lord will continue to use my time in Hungary to further the Gospel even though I am back home!
